Full Version: Question for whenusing DW and Shadowdefender
Is it at all possible when using shadowdefender to be able to save defensewalls untrusted list and file and registry tracks changes, in shadowdefenders exclusion list, whilst in shadow mode?
I have no idea. Ask SD developers about an ability to keep certain registry keys non-rollback.

As far as I know SD doesn't offer registry exclusion list, but as Ilya said it will be better to ask the source - Tony SD developer.
Thanks Ilya and Creer :)
Yes Shadowdefender does not offer registry exclusion list so i guess the answer is no then.

I have received a reply from Shadowdefenders developer, Tony
I guess its no big deal as i normally only fire up Shadowdefender when other people use the computer.

SD can't add registry to Exclusion List up to now.
and there is also no plan to add it.
because if it was allowed, there will be a big security hole in Shadow Defender.
SD should use standard Windows APIs to manipulate the registry,
but the Windows APIs maybe are intercepted by some rootkits,
and there is also no plan to add it.

Yup, you are right I do the same. But since you for example enter in shadow mode only one partition (not all), files saved on second non-shadowed partition during SD session, and after restart will be still there. But after restart you won't find them in DW untrusted application list - so they will be Trusted!
There are two solution of this problem.
You can:
1. Always shadow all partitions
or
2. Make an container - special folder on the second partition (if you often save there files from eg. browsers or torrents software) and before enter into shadow mode, add this folder to Untrusted DW list. After that you can be sure that whatever new files will be there - they are always be Untrusted)
Thanks Creer, that is what i have done
